The South African selectors on Sunday named a squad of 14 players for the second and third Tests against England, in Durban from December 26 and Cape Town from January 3.

The squad included the 11 who played in the first Test at Centurion, plus batsman Alviro Petersen, all-rounder Ryan McLaren and fast bowler Dale Steyn. Dropped from the original 15-man squad for the first Test was left-arm fast bowler Wayne Parnell.

Steyn was due to play at Centurion but was withdrawn from the side because of a tight hamstring on the morning of the match.
